💬 Off-Topic Does Phil have Borderline Personality Disorder?

So everyone can diagnose, but what would an effective treatment look like? Given (huge, HUGE given) Phil would actually be receptive?

Phil won't ever be lucid enough to seek help, any real help offered to him will be just turned away in a spastic angry fit. To get help, Phil needs to understand he is the problem but I doubt he ever will.

If we're being serious, he'd have to realize he has issues and face them instead of running away. That means going to therapy, maybe being assigned a wrangler, going to a basic living program, and getting a proper living situation sorted out. If he ever followed a therapists advice, he wouldn't have much stopping him from re-entering the workforce in some capacity and living a productive existence. (The papers he posted as "proof" of his claims noted that he is expected to improve)

None of that is great for getting SJW asspats and is hard work, so ADF won't fold unless something drastically changes in his life. IMO, anyways.

I'm still of the mind that it would take a lobotomy to see any improvement, mainly because he would rather die homeless than unfuck his life.

From my understanding, treatment really amounts to realizing you have it and realizing how it warps your perception of things.

So no, Phil is hopeless. Regardless of whether he has it or not.
